Just asking.

The scenes in India are, not the ones in Australia

What percent of the film is subtitled, if you had to guess?

[–] cbnspanky2 8 years ago

About half, as the first part is about him as a child in India. Don't let that deter you from seeing this amazing film.

Most of the first 40 minutes or so, and some lines in the final scene, are subtitled.

The version I saw today in Maryland was
subtitled in both Spanish and in English.
The English subtitles were below the Spanish
and lasted for about half the film
while the Spanish was in the entire film.
For someone who gets Migraines frequently,
it hurt my eyes. I had no idea any of
it would be subtitled much less 2 languages
simultaneously. This was a regular AMC
theatre. For anyone else who gets headaches,
there is a good bit of what I call shakey camera
syndrome. Great film but it it did bother my
eyes.

Why? Would you avoid it if it was?
